Abstract
The present invention relates to a system, method, and non-transitory storage medium executable by one or more processors at a multi-processor system that improves load monitoring and processor-core assignments as compared to conventional approaches. A method consistent with the present invention includes a first data packet being received at a multi-processor system. After the first packet is received it may be sent to a first processor where the first processor identifies a first processing task associated with the first data packet. The first data packet may then be forwarded to a second processor that is optimized for processing the first processing task of the first data packet. The second processor may then process the first processing task of the first data packet. Program code associated with the first processing task may be stored in a level one (L1) cache at the first processor.
